The way some people reason can be very ridiculous. How can you maintain a school with the ambition of making it world class without student paying tuition. The best they can do is to come up with scholarship programs for the gifted. Besides, the fact that a school was established by a church doesn't mean members of other churches can't attend.

I agree with him on some level, but it would have made more sense if he said they should pay less for quality education. No good thing is free, cause they have to pay the staffs and management of the school.



Nothing is ever free
Nigerian churches makes over 5 trillion per year.. Cant that fpund our complete education and health system??

If you all think it is that easy and these pastors make much money, why don't you just quietly go and open your own church. Even if their schools are not free, do you know the families they feed, the scholarships they give out, and the multitude of people they give shelter? E.t.c. Common! let's grow up. Only God knows his true servants, is not by advertising.

He has a point tho... thus far i'm not aware of any 'special' payment plan /discount for poor students in xtian schools n univs.

The real question this man is asking is what has been the impact of the church on the society?

I don't think it should be completely free. It should just be affordable and be clearly different from the ones for profit!

It is unfortunate that many schools owned by churches collect school fees from the poor masses.Not pleased with the development,OPM free schools used signpost to tell Nigerian churches that schools owned by them should be free.

bt really when schs were built by missionaries weren't they free...u had qualified missionaries also as teachers...I jst hv a question to ask..what do churches now do with tithe n offerings?build bigger auditorium when they shld be building n shaping d life's of people..

The man putting up the sign posts is very stupid!

Are buildings, school books paid for with stones? Are the salaries of teachers or the infrastructure in these schools which no government (Federal, State or Local) can provide paid for with sand? On what basis should education provided by churches be free?

Scholarships are given by these schools based on academic excellence. If you want your children to attend those schools, go and hustle and pay for your children's education or you groom them to be smart enough to win scholarships. Simple.

It is the responsibility of parents to pay for their children's fees. My father was a real man and paid for all our fees without hoping for a church to put up a free school so his children can attend.

If the person who put up these signposts believes his wife should be in the kitchen or the other room, then the productive time he is wasting going around to put up signposts should be used to hustle to pay his kids' fees.

Any man who is busy with his wife in the other room producing babies should be man enough to get money to pay for their fees and not rely on a church to do that for him.

Stupid man!

I agree with you... Free things are usually abused. If we will be factual with ourselves, the best idea is to offer scholarships to indigents and gifted students.

Bro you're kidding right?

They got the land free from a redeem member?

Got bags of cement free from mfm members?

Abeg no lemme laugh.

Better you say it didn't get all its funding from church members

But even at that NO BANK will give them loan of that magnitude without adequate collateral...

So WHAT DO U THINK THEY WILL USE AS COLLATERAL? What economic model do u think they'll present as source of funding?

Thus it's the church members that built covenant uni...simple

It is true but people do not value free services.Some in the long run abuse such services. If a church is led to run philanthropic services,she would be empowered with the resources.


Does the church consider the general public for admission or just the members whom God uses to foot the bill of the church?



If anybody from anywhere irrespective of religion, tribe or denomination can be admitted,the policy of the church may set me thinking.

He should have added,"I ,my relatives and my entire generation will work for the school without being paid salary,i also promise to buy all the stationaries that will be used in the school"
